GTD method: Organizing your time improves your personal productivity
The importance of time control
For
a professional deadlines and commitments are the order of the day. In your day
to day you have to deal with an innumerable list of tasks both in the
professional and personal field and having a good organization is something
extremely essential both to be a competent person and for the no less important
fact of being able to make your tasks or duties compatible with free time.
In addition, you should not
forget the importance for the good development of a group project the fact that
each member has competencies in time management and at the same time is able to
synchronize in an optimal way with the work of the rest of the team.
The GTD Method
The field of time management is
so relevant in our current societies that there are professionals who have
specialized in the study of time management . This is the case of David Allen,
consultant and instructor of productivity and his method GTD (Getting Things
Done), which translated would be something similar to "doing things
right"
The objective of this methodology
is based on simplifying the processes of storage, monitoring and review of all
information related to the personal tasks that you must develop. Highlight
these areas is essential to learn to set objectives and goals and take actions
to reach the desired end. The fact of extrapolating the memory to an external
agent "frees us" from this psychological burden that can create
stress, blockage or even forgetfulness, since our ability to remember can be
extremely fragile in some occasions. Do you think that you organize well? Do you
really optimize every minute of your time?
The need for you to start showing
attention to this issue is relevant since numerous studies on productivity in
the workplace come to the conclusion that between 50-70% of our work activity
is devoted to activities that are totally unproductive for the development of
our objectives . The working hours are long and throughout the week multiple
hours are accumulated, however, how do you use them? The domain of managing
your personal time lies in the fact that what matters is not how much time you
have, but how you manage it.
